Hi all, I did my cleaning run today with vineager/water,
just connected the leibig up and ran it flat out, will do a 2 gallon sugar wash sacraficial run later this week and try and have a go at running the cooling coil and cold finger and see if I can get this equalibrium going in the column in a practice run.
Quick question, I just about got a constant very slow trickle with the heat ( 100 deg C at outlet ) up full and cold distillate in jar, would this go any faster with an alcohol wash, or will this be as quick as it goes.
I did insulate it for the most of the run.
Cheers for all the help so far.

Yes it will speed up on the ethanol run but i think that top end needs introducing to a bigger bottem end...i need new glasses i think... 
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
